EFL Summer Conference
1I see in the notes of the meeting a restriction on ground sharing in future. As it mentions a limit on the number of “sports” sharing rather than “teams” I hope that it doesn’t cause us any problems?
No, because it would still be only two sports. Academic given how far removed from current standards Spytty must now be.newgroundrodney wrote:So does that mean Newport Athletics Stadium may be no longer an option?

Struggling to think of clubs which have ever shared with two other sports. Anyone ever shared with both rugby codes?

And if Reading shared with London Irish and Reading RFC your point would be well made.G Guest wrote:Reading, who share with London Irish, say that the rule applies to the number of sports and the maximum is two.

The release meant what it said, simples.
No-one can think of any instance when a League club has shared with more than one sport. The interesting bit is the EFL insisting groundshares use a hybrid or similar pitch.
